New toys from A&A
« on: 2009-04-02, 17:10:40 »

They sent me a tracking number, so my goodies should be here soon. I'll post pics when everything arrives.

What's coming is this... Custom glaive, Henry V sword (hollow-ground), and poles so I can try to mount my GDFB polearm heads.

Sweet!

Yeah, they sent me my square target this week. I'm pretty psyched about that!

Ahem. *looking at the date right now*

Boy, it sure would be cool if Sir Edward had gotten his custom glaive by now... and it'd be even cooler if he posted pics. *nudge, nudge* ;)

lol, yeah I was waiting for the sword so I'd only have to set up a photo area once. :) But it's been delayed, so I suspect I'll just have to take some pics.

Awesome! I've gotten to play around with Ed's glaive, and it is way nicer than I expected. I loved just how fast and light it was.

I have yet to see this new Henry V with the hollow ground blade. It certainly looks beautiful!

I finally too measurements of the Henry V, and it's actually heavier than I thought. The weight is pulled so far back into the hilt that it's misleading. I thought it would weigh in just under 2 pounds, but it's nearly 2.5:

PoB (CoG) is only about 1.75" from the base of the blade.
